Listen out for me in ZB2/M1GEO in a few weekends time!

Reciprocal licences are VHF only so 6m will feature heavily! ๐Ÿ˜‚

74 DXCC entities needed for me. They get progressively harder. ๐Ÿ˜ข

Today saw me activate three #SOTA summits in G/SC, and the Dorset Landscapes #POTA GB-0008. All on 2m, mix of SSB, CW and FM. Weather was on side. Thanks for the QSOs! #hamradio #portable

I forgot to flip them back again! ๐Ÿ˜‚ For some reason the phone mirrors the picture.

Absolutely! Always give us a call! I'm normally cold, incompetent and desperate for that last QSO. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Good to catch you mate! Great signal here with me, 599++; hope your weather was reasonable at least!

Few of us did the 'favourite five' SOTAs (and their POTAs) yesterday!

I'll try and get a POTA in after work this week for the CW practice. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Who cares, you're in the log! Nicely done! I made 1 QSO (20M FT8) and will try and get some other slots later when it calms a little!

I just wanted the ATNO DXCC. ๐Ÿ™‚

It's about 3m total length. 2uH loop inductance.

It attracted quite a bit of attention with the Sunday morning football crowd in the park ๐Ÿ˜‚

I find ally easier, personally. I recovered the situation with an angle grinder and a VERY steady hand. ๐Ÿ˜

Not my finest work, but it'll work fine! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ‘Œ

๐Ÿ™ Penultimate hole: 13.5/15 holes tapped to M3.

Cooper is so sticky.

I may have said bad words. Anyone have an M3 tap I can borrow? ๐Ÿ˜

I think it may have actually worked in the end; I _think_ it was just trying to push 50k QSOs to Michael's box and not having fun!

This throws a tonne of errors for me :( The username and password are set and correct.

LoTW works OK; QRZ upload also fails.

Ohh, I'm manually syncing to Clublog... I must have missed a script! ๐Ÿ˜‚

I've done nothing clever, it's all in Cloudlog by Pete @mm9sql.com

Likewise. I push everything real-time to my online logbook, and that batches everything up once per hour as cronjob. Works nicely.

Thanks Phil! ๐Ÿ˜‚ I was only joking, but nice to have.

@gu0sup.bsky.social Thanks for the QSO, Phil. I had entered something witty in the 73 box, but apparently someone else calling me meant that didn't get sent! Nice to catch you and looking forward to you confirming GU on 30m in LoTW for me ;) hahah
